If anyone with carefree assurance breaks into this place, he will not succeed in satisfying his curiosity and he will enter a labyrinth from which he can find no exit.

He has set forth by His Word the secrets of His will that He has decided to reveal to us. These He decided to reveal in so far as He foresaw that they would concern and benefit us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7627</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Such a blush In the midst of brown was born,  Like red poppies grown with corn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4382]]></link><description><![CDATA[Such a blush In the midst of brown was born,  Like red poppies grown with corn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Necessity is a violent school-mistress. [Fr., C'est une violente maistresse d'eschole que la necessite.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44053]]></link><description><![CDATA[Necessity is a violent school-mistress. [Fr., C'est une violente maistresse d'eschole que la necessite.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44053</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42866]]></link><description><![CDATA[Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't want to abandon one work for the other, and I don't think I need to sacrifice anything to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28168]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't want to abandon one work for the other, and I don't think I need to sacrifice anything to put my all into either one of them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas Bray, Priest, Founder of SPCK, 1730  The fortitude of a Christian consists in patience, not in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8278]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas Bray, Priest, Founder of SPCK, 1730  The fortitude of a Christian consists in patience, not in enterprises which the poets call heroic, and which are commonly the effects of interest, pride, and worldly honor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's a sweet little cherub that sits up aloft, To keep watch for the life of poor Jack. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43994]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's a sweet little cherub that sits up aloft, To keep watch for the life of poor Jack.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43994</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's like a train wreck.
